Jude Bellingham Wins England Player of the Year 2025

Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham has been rewarded for his brilliant performances with the England national team during the 2025 season.

The young midfielder was voted England’s Player of the Year after finishing ahead of Arsenal’s Declan Rice and Bayern Munich’s Harry Kane in the supporters’ poll. It marks another impressive milestone in a career that continues to climb.

Recognition from Fans and History

The award was first introduced in 2006, when Bayern Munich’s Owen Hargreaves became the inaugural winner.
Now, almost two decades later, Bellingham joins him as only the second player not based in England to receive the honour.

It’s a clear sign of how much his impact has meant — both at club and international level. Bellingham’s leadership, maturity, and drive have made him one of the most influential players in Gareth Southgate’s squad.

A Minor Setback, but Continued Respect

Although Bellingham missed England’s September training camp due to injury and was not included in the latest World Cup qualifying squad, the respect from fans remains high.
His performances earlier in the year left a strong impression, helping England in key matches and showing consistency far beyond his age.

Many supporters see this award as recognition not only of his technical ability, but also his mentality — calm, focused, and always pushing forward.

Looking Ahead

At just 22, Bellingham has already achieved what many players dream of. Winning the England Player of the Year 2025 award while starring for Real Madrid proves that he’s more than just a rising star — he’s already one of the best in the world.

And if history is any guide, this might only be the beginning.
